New York Day-By-Day: Zero + Maria Cornejo

Androgyny.... If you refer to Masculin Féminin, you’d be talking about the 1966 Godard movie. If you refer to Masculine Feminine, you’d be thinking about the trend for androgynous dressing that feels like it has been around since 1966. Still, it’s possible to have new life breathed into it, which is where Maria Cornejo’s Zero + Maria Cornejo comes in. Showing her women’s looks with her men’s collection, only the second she has ever done for her label, you could see how Cornejo’s approach—curving shapes, circular cutting, complex tailoring that is both geometric and organic—could work for both sexes. It’s evident in the double layering that’s going on in this look, with the nascent trend of layering coats, cardigans and jackets on top of each other. And consider this: If he steals the jacket off your back, you’ll still have another one on.
